Abstract:

Representing the human body ??? science as social meaning adopts and develops systemic functional social semiotics to analyse the popular science texts, The Human Body, Superhuman, Human Instinct, Brain Story, The Secret Life of Twins and How to Build a Human. These are predominantly produced through the resources of the Wellcome Trust and/or the BBC/TLC (The Learning Channel), and feature celebrity doctors (Robert Winston) or scientists (Susan Greenfield) as presenters.

Abstract:

This dissertation offers an analysis of the notion and meaning of the body and different kind of aspects of corporeality in French structuralist theories, more specifically, in the later works (dating from the ‘70s) by two immensely influential authors of the second half of the twentieth century, Roland Barthes (1915–1980) and Algirdas Julius Greimas (1917–1992), whose legacy had an profound impact on literary studies. Despite differences in the approach applied by Barthes and Greimas in their research of the body within the systems of, respectively, semiology and postsemiology and semiotics,

I detta kandidatarbete har vi undersökt hur en skulle kunna gå till väga för att skapa ett interaktivt narrativ utan användningen av dialoger eller narration. Med hjälp av kroppsspråk och semiotik har vi arbetat för att skapa gester som är lätta att förstå oavsett vem som betraktar gestaltningen och med hjälp av mikrokontroller och sensorer så har vi skapat en gestaltning som betraktaren kan interagera med på så vis få en lämplig reaktion tillbaka. Under arbetet har vi även provat på ett, för oss, nytt designperspektiv som vi grundat inom semiotik. Detta och ny teknik har fört med sig en del p

Abstract:

This study will embrace certain features of postmodern experience so as to underline subjective embodiment as the condition, corollary, and appropriate focus of textual, rhetorical, and sociopolitical criticism. It will theorize somantics as a conceptual toolkit for mapping the structural correspondence of embodiment to the symbolic order, each thus emerging as the other’s non-foundational “efficient reason.” This study will argue that the flesh mediates the theoretic divisions of structuralism, deconstruction, psychoanalysis, and existentialism, although not in a priori or essentialist ways.

Abstract:

This explication seeks to frame a practice-led research project that explores the scenographic elements of place and object as an intermediary device between body and narrative in devising theatre. A focus of this work is scenographics as a mediating moment between traumatised body and painful narrative; using objects and place as a means of safely exploring and un/recovering memory to make theatre. The research also explores wider applications of scenographics in their formative and generative potential in devising theatre. The practical research is underpinned and located in various conceptu

Abstract:

This thesis explores the nature and emergence of early body ornamentation, which has long been at the forefront of the debate on modern human origins. According to most prehistorians, ornamental shell beads are unequivocal proxies for behavioural and cognitive "modernity", for they are considered the arbitrary products of symbolically-capable brains. In my dissertation, I argue against the "symbolic" dictum of reducing material signification to linguistic terms, and attributing its creation to a representational mechanism. For one, the significative meaning of material culture is not entirely

Abstract:

Magazine covers are multimodal texts designed to draw the attention of potential readers. Health and fitness magazines, in particular, make up a large portion of the publishing industry, and previous research has pointed to their influence on readers’ perceptions of health and fitness. In order to interpret the multimodality of magazine covers, a different approach other than the purely linguistic one needs to be employed. Following the theoretical frameworks of Systemic Functional Linguistics and Social Semiotics, this study set out to investigate the verbal and visual construction of health

Abstract:

<p>The phenomenology of Gaston Bachelard holds that readers, or viewers, relate to spatial imagery through the use of age-old archetypes. These archetypes form a collective image-memory that is employed when reading space. One such image is the house. The house for Bachelard is, however, never solely an image, but constitutes a familiar space that becomes inscribed in our bodies through the repeated physical contact with this domestic space. The house teaches us to interact with space, and comes to inform the way that human beings understand images of space. Spatial imagery can be conceptualiz

This essay examines the performance artworks Action Pants: Genital Panic (1969), Interior Scroll (1975) and S.O.S Starification Object Series (1974-82) by artists VALIE EXPORT, Carolee Schneemann and Hannah Wilke. The objective is to analyse the expressions of these artworks, from a theoretical viewpoint of feminist art-theoreticians and their critique regarding the female body in representation. Performance- and body-art have been the subject of discussion with respect to the female nude in the history of art, and the patriarchal structures that surround it.

Abstract:

Today we live in an advertised-oriented society and we are constantly exposed to commercialized messages. Most advertising is based on stereotypical portraits of humans. And something that has attracted attention during the last decade is the one-sided representation that appears in these advertisements. This matter has been particularly relevant during the last decade with the emergence of significant societal phenomena and the questioning of power relations in society. Among these, Black Lives Matter, Metoo, and the Body Positivity-movement. This study aims to investigate what stereotypes ca

Abstract:

This study presents a new theory of semiotics (the study of signs). The theory, called finite semiotics, proposes that the growing effects and challenges of technology, as well as signs themselves, can be better understood by examining our cognition in finite, quantitative terms. Two illustrative applications of the theory are developed. The first addresses the ethical problem of accountability for technology's effects by introducing a new concept of cognitive externalities. The second derives a computational method for automating opposition analysis, a technique central to applied semiotics.

This thesis is concerned with the relationship between colour and certain bi-polar characteristics. This topic has previously been studied through highly controlled laboratory-based experiments but this thesis starts from the question of whether experiments conducted in the laboratory (which are necessarily constrained to have low numbers of participants) can ever hope to capture the full complexity of the relationships being studied, since there are likely to be strong cultural and regional differences. The key advance in this work therefore was to explore the use of a web-based experiment f
